I'm afraid nobody here goes to Gen Con, it's a gaming convention and it's split between Indy and SoCal (ok, "split" isn't accurate, SoCal is a fraction of the draw the Indy one has). But look at the other threads about Gen Con here: http://forums.sirstevesguide.com/showthread.php?t=31920

Nobody goes to these things from our group, searching "gen con" gets you these 3 threads and a bunch about Celebration 3, the CCG forum isn't exactly doing hot business (or virtually any business) and nobody's asked us to set up a Role Play forum, SSG just doesn't have much of a gaming community.

Well it turns out that I didn't need any help from anyone here at SSG. A old Scummer friend and I traded. I sent him a Shocky and I got a Jade! What a awesome Bust and boy does she have a bust!:evil:

I went, specifically for the Jade bust. Shannon McRandle was there too, autographing the busts for free. :thumbsup: She signed the front of the bust and the box for me.

The guys I go with are gamers; I'm not. I go for autographs (depending on who's there) and looking for toys. I got BSG's Richard Hatch's autograph on a 12" Apollo figure. Only three booths selling SW toys, and most of those were overpriced. $40 for an UGH Scorch, and it sold!!

Also picked up the exclusive 100th Gentle Giant bust-up at the GG booth from playing a game. It's very nice.

Gen Con hasn't brought about anything special Star Wars Orientated yet but I am one of the key sponsors for an event in the UK called Game07 in Manchester and there will be a great deal of Miniature gaming going on these specific to Star Wars! May be worth a look-in!! :thumbsup:
